General Description
The HMC508LP5 & HMC508LP5E are GaAs InGaP
Heterojunction Bipolar Transistor (HBT) MMIC
VCOs. The HMC508LP5 & HMC508LP5E integrate
resonators, negative resistance devices, varactor
diodes and feature a half frequency output. The VCO’s
phase noise performance is excellent over temper-
ature, shock, and process due to the oscillator’s
monolithic structure. Power output is +15.0 dBm typical
from a +5V supply. The voltage controlled oscillator
is packaged in a leadless QFN 5x5 mm surface
mount package, and requires no external matching
components.
